Intended Use

QOCA® image Smart CXR Image Processing System is a software as medical device (SaMD) used, through artificial intelligence/deep learning technology, to analyze chest X-ray images of adult patient, and then identify cases with suspected pneumothorax. This product shall be used in conjunction with Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS) at the hospital. This product will automatically analyze the DICOM files automatically pushed from PACS, and then make a notation next to the cases with suspected pneumothorax. This product is only used to remind radiologists to prioritize reviewing cases with suspected pneumothorax. Its results cannot be used as a substitute for a diagnosis by a radiologist, nor can it be used on a stand-alone basis for clinical decision-making.

Device Description

This product, QOCA® image Smart CXR Image Processing System, is a web-based medical device using a locked artificial intelligence algorithm. It provides features such as cases sorting and image viewing, and supports multiple users at a time.

After connecting to Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS) at the hospital, this product is capable of automatically analyzing either posteroanterior (PA) view or anteroposterior (AP) erect view chest X-ray images automatically pushed from PACS. Once a case with suspected pneumothorax is identified, a notation will be made next to the case in question, so the radiologist can prioritize to review cases with suspected pneumothorax in the Viewer Page. This product will not directly indicate, however, the specific portions or anomalies on the image.

AI/ML Overview

Here's a breakdown of the acceptance criteria and the study details for the QOCA® image Smart CXR Image Processing System:

Average Performance Time22.1 seconds4.94 secondsMet

Note: The reported device performance is an overall performance across both the MIMIC and Taiwanese datasets. Individual performance for each dataset is also provided in the document.


2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance

The device's performance was assessed using two separate pivotal studies/datasets:

  • MIMIC Dataset:

    • Sample Size: 3,105 radiographs (336 positive pneumothorax cases, 2,769 negative pneumothorax cases).
    • Data Provenance: US patient population (MIMIC dataset). This was an independent medical institution from the training dataset.
  • Taiwanese Dataset:

    • Sample Size: 2,947 radiographs (472 positive pneumothorax cases, 2,475 negative pneumothorax cases).
    • Data Provenance: Taiwanese hospital. This was an independent medical institution from the training dataset.

Overall Test Set: 6,052 radiographs (3,105 from MIMIC + 2,947 from Taiwan). Both datasets were retrospective.


3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Their Qualifications

For both the MIMIC dataset and the Taiwanese dataset:

  • Number of Experts: Three radiologists.
  • Qualifications: The document states "truthed by three radiologists" without specifying their years of experience or sub-specialty.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

The document does not explicitly state the adjudication method (e.g., 2+1, 3+1). It only mentions that the datasets were "truthed by three radiologists," implying a consensus-based approach, but the specific process for resolving disagreements is not detailed.


5. Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study

There is no mention of a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study being performed to assess how much human readers improve with AI vs. without AI assistance. The study focused on the standalone performance of the AI algorithm.


6. Standalone Performance Study

Yes, a standalone performance study was done. The document explicitly states: "Bases on the results of the standalone performance assessment, this product achieves, identification accuracy of AUC > 95% with Sensitivity > 91% and Specificity > 92%." The performance metrics provided in section 1 (AUC, sensitivity, specificity) reflect the algorithm's performance without human-in-the-loop.


7. Type of Ground Truth Used

The ground truth for the test sets (MIMIC and Taiwanese) was established by "three radiologists," which indicates expert consensus diagnosis.


8. Sample Size for the Training Set

The document states: "The training dataset is used to train the model, and divided into three sets: the training set, the validation set, and the test set." However, the specific sample size for the entire training dataset (including training, validation, and its own internal test set used during development) is not provided in the summary. It only indicates that it was "collected from two hospitals, and additional data from the US National Institutes of Health (NIH) was added to the test set to improve its US patient population representativeness during training."


9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established

The document states that the "model training dataset was collected from two hospitals, and additional data from the US National Institutes of Health (NIH) was added to the test set." While it implies the data was labeled for training, it does not explicitly describe how the ground truth for the training set was established (e.g., whether it was also by expert radiologists, pathology, etc.).

Similarity and Difference

The subject device has the similar intended use to the predicate device. Both devices are intended to aid in worklist triage by providing notification of suspected pneumothorax cases using an artificial intelligence algorithm. And they are not intended to be used on a stand-alone basis for clinical decision-making or clinical diagnosis.

The slight difference between the subject device and the predicate is the result presentation. However, the result presenting of the subject device is within the scope of the predicate. Therefore, it will not affect the substantial equivalence.

5.9 Performance Data

The subject product, OOCA® image Smart CXR Image Processing System has been evaluated and verified in accordance with software specifications and applicable performance standards to ensure performance.

The separation of the model training dataset and performance assessment dataset

We split dataset into two parts: a model training dataset and a performance assessment dataset. The training dataset is used to train the model, and divided into three sets: the training set, the validation set, and the test set. The performance assessment dataset is used to valid the model's performance. By using a separate performance assessment dataset, we can get a better idea of how well the model will perform in the real world.

All data was carefully managed to prevent overlap and ensure that each dataset was completely independent by using accession numbers and patient IDs. The model training dataset was collected from two hospitals, and additional data from the US National Institutes of Health (NIH) was added to the test set to improve its US patient population representativeness during training. For performance assessment, the US patient population data form MIMIC dataset and a medical institution independent of model training dataset were used. This helped us get a better idea of how well the model would perform in the real world. To avoid any potential biases,

{11}------------------------------------------------

the data for the model training dataset and the performance assessment dataset were carefully chosen and separated.

Performance assessment

The performance of the subject device, QOCA® image Smart CXR Image Processing System, has been validated in two separate pivotal studies. The two studies were performed with the data from the MIMIC dataset and a Taiwanese hospital respectively. The performance of the subject device across the performance assessment dataset achieves an area under the curve (AUC) of 97.8% (95% CI: [97.0%. 98.5%]: in addition, the sensitivity and specificity achieves 92.5% (95% CI: [90.5%, 94.2%]), 94.0% (95% CI: [93.9%, 94.6%]) respectively, without subgroup breakdown. This performance is substantially equivalent to the predicate device (K190362); AUC of 98.3% (95% CI: [97.40%, 99.02%]), the sensitivity and specificity is 93.15% (95% CI: [87.76%, 96.67%]) and 92.99% (95% CI: [90.19%, 95.19%]), respectively.

First, the MIMIC dataset was used to demonstrate the generalizability of the device to the demographics of the US population. The dataset consisted of 3,105 radiographs with 336 positive and 2,769 negative pneumothorax cases. The ethnicities included Asian, Black/African American, Hispanic or Latino, and White. The dataset was truthed by three radiologists. The performance of the subject device to the MIMIC dataset is AUC of 97.7% (95% CI: [96.5%, 98.8%]), the sensitivity and specificity is 93.7% (95% CI: [90.6%, 96.0%]) and 93.3% (95% CI: [92.3%, 94.2%]), respectively.

Besides, we assessed the performance time of the subject device that reflects the time it takes for the device to analyze the study and send a notification to the worklist. The average performance time of the subject device was 4.94 seconds, and that is substantially equivalent to the predicate (22.1 seconds).

{13}------------------------------------------------

5.10 Conclusion

The subject device has a similar intended use to the predicate device, and the slight difference does not affect the substantial equivalence. In addition, there are no differences in technological characteristics that affect the safety and effectiveness of the subject device relative to the predicate. Moreover, the performance testing results are similar to the predicate device. Therefore, the subject device, QOCA® image Smart CXR Image Processing System, is substantially equivalent to the predicate device.
